Recently, a netizen posted on the Internet that his wife was an on-the-job doctor of equivalent academic ability at China Medical University, who had passed the blind review and defense of her graduation thesis, but was notified by the school that she could not award a degree.
This post revealed:
This year, more than 60 in-service doctoral students of China Medical University with the same academic ability are unable to obtain a degree, and they need to provide proof of "provincial and ministerial science and technology progress awards or published high-quality articles" to pass the qualification review in order to obtain a doctorate.
Things are fermenting on the Internet, and China Medical University has given these on-the-job doctoral students with the same academic ability as these on-the-job doctoral students who are facing graduation 2 solutions:
1. Voluntarily give up the qualification to apply for a doctorate degree with equivalent academic qualifications, and refund all tuition fees;
2. Retain the qualifications to apply for a degree, and confer a degree upon meeting the requirements set by the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Councilor.
When it was time to graduate and get a degree, of course, these more than 60 doctoral students with the same academic ability could not accept the school's plan, and felt that the school was joking with their efforts and future.
They believe that "the vast majority of these doctoral students with the same academic ability are doctors, but they cannot get a degree certificate after graduation, which seriously affects their life planning."
Most people who have not studied for a doctorate don't know what to do, so let's take an example.
Twenty years ago, it was popular among teachers in my area to take undergraduate diplomas by correspondence. At that time, it was stipulated that those who obtained a bachelor's degree within three years of graduating from a junior college would be paid a salary according to their bachelor's degree.
Many teachers are busy taking big classes, correspondence courses, and open-book exams to get results during the summer vacation. When the Education Bureau finally got a bachelor's degree, the Education Bureau found that there were too many people, so it cancelled the salary adjustment according to the continuing education diploma and changed it to the salary bracket according to the working hours.
The reason why these on-the-job doctoral students with the same academic qualifications get doctoral diplomas is really for academic research and to contribute to medical science is a minority.
Isn't it mostly for the sake of promotion and promotion, to consolidate the existing position, and to obtain more resources, status and power?
In 1998, the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council promulgated the Regulations of the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council on Conferring Master's and Doctoral Degrees to Persons with Equivalent Academic Qualifications for Graduate Studies (hereinafter referred to as the "Regulations").
The "Regulations" shall meet two requirements when applying for and awarding a doctorate of equivalent academic ability:
1. Applicants should have made outstanding achievements in the fields of teaching, scientific research, and specialized technology, and have independently published high-level academic papers in the subject area for which they are applying for a degree.
2. Or have published high-level monographs, and their scientific research achievements have won awards at or above the national or provincial level.
Recently, the graduate degree management staff of China Medical University said:
In March this year, the Ministry of Education issued a rectification request to us, and we also handled it according to the requirements.
It seems that this China Medical University has found a channel to make profits!
The university went so far as to ignore the regulations of the Ministry of Education, wander around the edge of the regulations at will, deliberately lower the training standards of on-the-job doctoral students with the same academic ability, and mass-produce doctoral diplomas.
The "Regulations" of the Ministry of Education have been promulgated for more than 25 years, how can China Medical University misunderstand the document, and it is clearly a risky business to make a fortune in the production of diplomas.
Those who choose to study for a doctorate at China Medical University are not "stupid", according to relevant exposures, there are 1,800 on-the-job master's and doctoral students with the same academic ability in the school.
Although there is no reliable basis for this exposure data, it can reflect that there are many people who want to take shortcuts to obtain diplomas.
They found that this school has a low threshold, and they can get a doctoral diploma after paying the tuition fee and coping with it, which is a shortcut. Everyone knows that choosing this school is risky, but they all want to pay the least and maximize the benefits.
After all, someone ate the "crab" first, and everyone rushed to the top.
Now, these doctoral students who are about to graduate with the same academic ability must obtain a doctorate degree in accordance with the national regulations and in accordance with the law, or drop out, which is also self-inflicted!
In the past 20 years, China Medical University has deliberately misread documents and released how many "Dr. Shui" who snatched resources!
This school blatantly violates the national regulations on the cultivation of high-end talents and undermines educational fairness, which is a crime!
Fortunately, once the Ministry of Education found out, it resolutely stopped it, otherwise the damage and losses would have been even greater.
The Ministry of Education should not stop at requiring China Medical University to rectify the work of "in-service personnel applying for and awarding doctoral degrees with the same academic qualifications as graduate students", but also investigate and revoke the previous "Dr. Shui", and should investigate the responsibility of relevant personnel in accordance with the law!
